Clara narrowed her eyes. Just when she thought Caiden was less annoying, he came out with something like this. 

“I don’t think being able to tell when someone is flirting with me is going to help with my final goal,” she snapped and removed her hand from his hair. 

“There was someone at Trinity Academy who liked you in your first life,” Caiden told her. 

That was enough to pique Clara’s curiosity. Then she remembered that it didn’t really matter because Clara was dead and she considered everyone at Trinity Academy to be a bully in one way or another.  

“Well, they didn’t do anything to save me so I don’t care who they are,” she replied. 

She was sure she would have been interested in this titbit of information before she had died. Now her only focus was revenge.

    Clara was surprised to see Caiden look so downcast. It didn’t look right to see the demon look so sorry for himself. She didn’t quite know what to say to comfort him.“You’re not useless,” she said. “You’re doing everything that you can. You’re really annoying at times, but you’ve been very helpful to me so far.”Caiden perked up noticeably at her compliment and Clara smiled gently. The demon might be easier to deal with than she had predicted.“Are all demons as insecure as you?” she questioned.Caiden looked surprised by the question. Clara was interested to hear his answer. He hadn’t told her much about demons yet and her curiosity had yet to be sated.“I don’t think so. I only really interact with younger demons like myself,” he answered. “I’m th

    “We don’t need to go far with the act,” Clara reminded him. “We just need to appear as a couple at a first glance.”“I just wanted to fluster you,” Arthur said with a guilty smile. “Never mind. As you said, we just need to act like a couple if you get recognised by Beryl. Let’s go.”Arthur parked in the car in the hotel parking lot. There were regular looking cars, fancy cars and other Lamborghinis. “Beryl is due here in 20 minutes according her text,” Arthur said after checking his phone. “Let’s get moving.”They walked into the entrance of the hotel. Clara was overwhelmed again by the fancy atmosphere. It was so bright and dazzling inside. She really had been living in a low class before. Trinity Academy was nothing compared to this.“Have you stayed he

    “You are the best person I could have asked to help,” Clara agreed. Arthur beamed at her. There was a visible blush on his face and Clara waited for Caiden to say something malicious about Arthur. Hopefully he had got past that pettiness, but she wasn’t going to expect too much of him. “He did a good job with that,” the demon said reluctantly. “He dispelled any suspicion that the staff had about the two of you.” “You’re still the one footing the bill for today,” Arthur said with a grin. “Remember that you said you would buy me food instead of paying me.” Clara almost winced at the thought of the bill before remembering that she actually had a bank account now. It was easy to forget sometimes that she was a rich heiress. “I did. I think we’ve got enough material to prove that Beryl is cheating on Grandpa now,” she replied. “Let’s just focus on our food. Do you think they didn’t actually kick us out because we dressed like rich brats?” “It’s most likely that we survived for l

    Clara blinked in surprise. She wasn’t sure if she had heard Arthur correctly. She was shocked that Arthur would suggest committing a crime in order to find the evidence they needed. It was a method that would undoubtably provide results, but she didn’t want to do it. She felt that the chances of getting caught were high. “We’re not breaking in,” she hissed in case they were overheard. “It’s a crime.” Arthur shrugged. “We’ve already committed a crime by putting spyware on her phone. I’ve checked out her office already, the security isn’t great there. It’s feasible.” Clara stopped eating her pretzel with a sigh. Arthur was right. They had already broken the law once and were going to a second time by hacking into the company’s computers. “I hope someone clicks on your email so we don’t have to stoop to that,” she said. “I hope so too. Of course, I wasn’t being serious about the break in. It’s a last resort plan,” he replied. “My parents have heard of her company and were interest

    Clara was satisfied with how things were coming together. They had already come across a lot of useful information that would discredit Beryl’s business reputation. “That’s a good plan,” Arthur agreed. “Let’s see what else we can dig up. We know who her investors are so it will be easy to make sure the right people see this information.” Clara nodded and continued going through the emails on the server. Beryl was sounding increasingly desperate for money in her recent emails to her employees. “I’ve found some records that look like what we need,” Arthur announced. “There’s a list of incoming money and the sender for some of the payments is listed as ‘unknown’. These dates are from very early on, this has to be the money that she took from your grandfather. She took the money out in small amounts over several weeks.” “Is there any chance you can get access to the actual bank accounts to get a full record of transactions?” she asked. “I’ll try,” he said. “There’s chance I mig

    “I think we’re more compatible than we were both expecting,” Clara said. “We’re getting on well now compared to when we first met.” “Do you want us to be anything more than teammates?” the demon asked. Clara jumped to the assumption that he was talking about being friends with her. That was the next step after being teammates after all. “I can see us being friends,” she said. “Arthur and I are friends now. He’s nicer than you so it didn’t take long.” Caiden pouted and pinched her side. “He has an unfair advantage by existing in the human world where I don’t. I would be very close to you if I actually had a human body here.” Clara could see his point. Caiden was restricted to only being able to interact with her properly when no one else was around.“You might become my best friend before Arthur does,” she replied. “I might not see him again after we finish school.” “You will see him again after that,” Caiden said absentmindedly. Clara narrowed her eyes. Caiden had a tendency t

    Caiden watched Clara and Arthur interact with a focused gaze. He could only see Arthur’s one-sided feelings of love. Clara wasn’t showing any signs of romantic attraction towards the hacker. The two of them had met up to discuss their next steps with the revenge plan and Caiden had come along to make sure things were progressing properly. Or rather, that was what he had told Clara. He had really come to observe her interactions with Arthur. He had stopped coming to their meetings after the first two as Clara didn’t need him to prompt her anymore and he had a tendency to show his jealous streak when he saw Arthur. Caiden knew he could be satisfied that Clara wasn’t romantically interested in Arthur. She had confirmed that she wasn’t interested in love the night before and he had already noticed the signs. The future he kept seeing was troubling him. Whenever he checked the end of Clara’s future, it always ended with them kissing and his tears. He could only assume that Clara only

    James looked at her with a steady gaze. Clara kept eye contact with him so he knew that she was being completely serious. “I see you’ve come here with a lot of conviction,” he said after a moment. “I will respect that and will not interrupt you.” Clara nodded and started off her speech. “Beryl is coming here now to ask you to save her failing company.” James looked sceptical and Clara kept going. She wasn’t going to stop for anything. “There’s a number of reasons to not give her money. Firstly, she’s been cheating on you the entire time.” Clara opened the folder on the table and took out the photos from the hotel and printouts of Beryl’s texts to her real boyfriend. Clara had selected the texts that were the best evidence of their relationship and showed Beryl’s true reasons for being involved with James. James looked over the photos without much expression on his face. Clara didn’t know what direction his thoughts were going in. If he suspected the evidence was photoshopped

    “I’m getting married!” Clara announced happily. She smiled over her coffee and Arthur watched her with a bemused look on his face. "When is the wedding?" he asked. “Next month,” Clara told him. “I was planning to invite you. We’ve only just decided on the date so there’s no invitations to give out yet.” “Do you not have wedding planner then?” the hacker questioned. “Invitations are normally sent out much sooner.” “I don’t want a big wedding,” Clara replied. “James was fine with it and just asked that I invite him.” She was a little surprised that her grandfather had agreed with her desire to have a very small wedding. They both enjoyed high positions in society and people like them normally had grand weddings with a long guest list and a high budget. “I shall consider an invite as a great honour then,” Arthur quipped. “How many guests are invited?” “I’m inviting 12 people,” Clara said. “Caiden has invited a couple of friends. He doesn’t have any relations to invite.” “Of cour

    Their first month of dating passed by quickly. They soon fell into a routine of meeting after work and going on dates. Clara was blissfully happy, but she knew they needed to discuss their future together. Caiden was only living temporarily in the UK after all. She chose to ask after they had finished eating Caiden’s latest attempt at a home cooked romantic meal. His cooking skills were unique to say the least. “Are you going to stay here in London when your job here is finished?” she asked. “Where would you like to live?” he questioned. “Here or in a different country? We have lots of options.” Clara thought about the matter seriously. She had grown up in the US and had been unexpectedly pulled into a different country. She did prefer living in the UK, but there were other countries to try as well. “We can move around,” Clara said. “I think we should make this our main country and travel to other places. That is if you want to. This is a decision we should make as a couple.” Ca

    Clara kept a careful watch on the office building opposite so she wouldn’t miss seeing Caiden leave when his work day had finished. She had already missed seeing him before, she wasn’t going to do it again. Fortunately, he was one of the first people out of the building and Clara immediately began to pack up everything she had brought with her. Caiden entered the coffeeshop and beamed when he saw her waiting by the door. “Excellent. You’re ready to leave on our date,” he said and held his hand out to her. “Can we take a diversion first?” she requested. It was only fair to let Arthur know that she had found Caiden, but she had decided a text wouldn’t suffice and it was better to let them meet in person. “Will it take long?” “I want to introduce you to someone,” she explained. “Arthur has been helping me look for you and I think he would like to see the success of our search.” Caiden looked thoughtful and then he nodded. “I would like to meet him. He has provided assista

    When Clara finally looked up from her phone and glanced back at the door, the person she had been waiting for had already left. She had missed a lot in the two minutes her attention had been diverted.A member of staff approached her table with a cup of coffee in her hand. Clara looked around in confusion. “I didn’t order anything,” she said. Clara was aware that she was the strangest customer in the coffeeshop and the staff were probably wondering when she was going to leave. She had been the first customer of the day and had only ordered two drinks in the past three hours. “One of our regulars came in a couple of minutes ago to pick up his online order. He saw you looking tired and bought an expresso for you,” the staff member explained with a smile. “He’s a nice person.” Clara blinked in surprise. She had never noticed any of the customers paying attention to her. The incident must have occurred when she had been occupied with her phone. She checked the name tag on the girl’s

    The weeks quickly turned into months and soon an entire year had passed. Clara had taken a position at St. Clair that had enabled her to travel around the world just so she would have better chance of finding Caiden. She returned to the family mansion on the anniversary of her return from the demon realm after an unsuccessful trip to New York. Her actual work had gone well, she just hadn’t found any signs of Caiden in the city. There hadn’t been any traces of Caiden in any of the 10 countries she had travelled to over the past year. He didn’t have any presence on the internet either and Clara didn’t have any idea of how she could improve her search methods. Clara collapsed onto her bed and closed her eyes. She was physically and emotionally exhausted from her search. Despite everything, she wasn’t going to give up. She would sleep for a while and then she would look at other highly populated places to visit. “Clara Kennedy.” Clara’s eyes opened immediately at the sound of

    Clara landed on the floor of her bedroom alone and fully aware of the gravity of the situation. She didn’t have Caiden at her side anymore. She needed to find him for that to happen. Clara stood up and realised that her legs were shaking. She had been feeling intimidated by the demon king and had refused to let him know. Now her nerves and lack of sleep had got to her. She took a deep breath to calm down. She had vowed that she would be able to find Caiden and she needed to start working on that.One person came to mind immediately. Arthur would be able to help her. She took her phone out of her pocket and called him. “...Hello?” Arthur asked cautiously when he picked up the call. Clara realised he had assumed that the phone call was someone else using her phone to inform him of her death. “It’s me, Clara,” she told him immediately. “Things have changed. Can we meet up? I have a lot to tell you.” “Of course,” he said. “I think we'll need to go somewhere that allows for private c

    Caiden was lost for words as he watched the events that he had foreseen so many times play out in front of him. It was no longer a vision of the future; it was happening in reality. It was finally the end of Clara’s life. Her soul floated in front of him as her eyes slowly closed. Caiden made his decision in that moment. He grabbed hold of Clara’s soul with his hands and pushed it back into her. Despite being very light, her soul wouldn’t move until he exerted all of his power. Clara’s eyes snapped open when her soul returned to her. “...What’s going on?” she asked breathlessly. “I can’t take your soul,” Caiden admitted. “I want you to keep it.” He had no real idea what was going to happen now. The contract had not been fulfilled properly. He had completed his part of the contract and he had stopped Clara from fulfilling her part. There was no precedent to follow here. He was the first demon to refuse a soul. “What’s going to happen to both of us?” Clara questioned weakl

    Clara knew that her grandfather was confused to hear her sentimental words. They rarely talked about their personal feelings. “I haven’t been the best grandfather,” James replied with a deep frown. “I brought Beryl here to be your mother figure as I had felt that it would prevent you from becoming like my daughter. It turned out to be the worst decision I have ever made.” Clara could not deny that James’ decision to date Beryl and bring her into the family had been lethal for Clarissa. She decided to focus on something else. “Thank you for rescuing me when I was a baby,” she said. “I’m sure Clara would also thank you for looking for her.” “You don’t need to thank me for that,” James replied. “I would also like to thank you for taking me in instead of leaving me to the care system,” Clara continued. She didn’t know much about the British care system, but it was likely similar to the American one she had lived through. She had been lucky to be adopted by a decent set of foster pa

    “It was a good ride,” Arthur said with a wink. “You kept me guessing for so many years. I’m so pleased to finally know what was going on the entire time.” Clara relaxed. The hardest part was over now. “Is everything over now?” he asked a moment later. “You’ve brought all of your targets down apart from Xavier King.” “It is,” she confirmed. Arthur nodded and then he looked deep in thought. He coughed awkwardly before speaking again. “Where did Clarissa go if you are in her body?” he questioned. Clara had been expecting this question. Arthur was the only person who had a connection to Clarissa and knew that she was using her body. It would have been odd if he didn’t ask where Clarissa had gone. “...She died when she committed suicide four years ago,” she explained. “Her body was alive for a short time and I was put into it. I’m sorry to tell that she died all that time ago.” Arthur frowned and looked away. “I see... That’s sad,” he said. “It’s odd to hear that Clariss
